Abstract

An oral cleaning tool for an electric oral hygiene device is disclosed. The oral cleaning tool includes a housing having a head section with a head cavity for accommodating a movable oral cleaning head and a neck section with a neck cavity and a handle coupling section; a first magnetic coupling element including at least a permanent magnet or a magnetizable element being provided in the neck section for mechanical handle drive shaft connection by magnetic interaction. The first magnetic coupling element is mounted at a motion transmitter, the motion transmitter extending inside the neck cavity to the head cavity, the motion transmitter arranged so as to be movable in a linear or longitudinal direction. The motion transmitter is coupled with the oral cleaning head, the oral cleaning head arranged so as to oscillate in a rotational direction.

Description

CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION[0001]This application is a continuation of European Patent Convention Application No. 11006106.6, filed Jul. 25, 2011, the substance of which is incorporated by reference in its entirety herein.FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0002]The present disclosure is directed to an attachment section for an oral hygiene device, a handle section for an oral hygiene device and an oral hygiene device.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0003]It is known that electric oral hygiene devices, in particular electric toothbrushes, may have detachably mounted replacement attachments such as a replacement brush head of an electric toothbrush. It is further known that the coupling between the attachment and an handle of the oral hygiene device may be by mechanical means such as a snap hook provided at the attachment that snaps into a groove provided at the handle. Mechanical couplings often have a certain clearing or gap between the coupling partners due to tolerances between the coup...
